Upplevelsen var fantastisk, även om det var lite av en utmaning att hitta mötesplatsen ... vår guide var mycket bra ... tillbringade en hel del tid på att förklara och svara på frågor. Hon var mycket kunnig och kastade in massor av berättelser och teorier och susperstitioner om legenderna. Både St Marks och Doges Palace var värda turnén!

Hela programmet var som planerat och jag tyckte att allt vi besökte var spektakulärt och det var ingen väntetid för att komma in i monumenten.

Vår guide var helt underbar och otroligt kunnig om den venetianska konstens, arkitekturens, politikens och handelns historia. Biljetterna till både Dogepalatset och Markuskyrkan hade redan sålt slut när jag tänkte kolla, så jag är verkligen glad att jag kunde se dem på det här sättet. En pytteliten sak - i mötesinstruktionerna stod det att guiden skulle hålla i en viss skylt, vilket de inte gjorde, så jag höll mig undan i evigheter eftersom jag inte kunde se vilken grupp som var min.

With this tour, you will get to visit two of the most emblematic attractions of Venice; St. Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace with priority access and a tour guide.

Politics of Doge's Palace

The Doge's Palace is located in St Mark's Square and is one of the most fascinating and culturally rich monuments in Venice. Having been the seat of political and administrative power of the Venice Republic from its birth to its end, the Palazzo Ducale is a statement of the splendor of Venice. While you are here, devote all your attention to your guide as the halls and corridors of this building carry stories that will enthrall you no bound.

Explore St. Mark's Basilica

After the palace, walk into Venice’s most majestic cathedral; St Mark’s Basilica. Lay your eyes on masterpieces of Byzantine art, colorful marble installations, and shimmering gold mosaic art. Squinting your eyes when you enter the Basilica is only natural, thanks to the shimmering mosaics made with 24-carat gold leaves fused onto the back of the glass to exhibit divine light. Your tour guide is likely to conduct a session wherein you sit comfortably in a certain part of the church and he explains the biblical importance and peculiarities of this ancient basilica. Watch out for tales you may never have heard of before!
